»Unter dem Pflaster liegt der Strand« - ein weiterer Spontispruch der Protestbewegungen der 60er, die Teil unseres Marketingkonzepts zur aktuellen Sonderausstellung »Die jungen Jahre der Alten Meister. Baselitz - Richter - Polke - Kiefer« sind. Ein Spruch, der zurück führt in das Jahr 1968. Die Bedeutung spiegelt den Geist dieser Zeit wieder: die Pflastersteine aus dem Boden reißen, sich damit zur Wehr setzen gegen vorherrschende Machtstrukturen und darunter Sand finden - den Strand, die Freiheit. Unsere neue Sonderausstellung ist mehr als Kunst zum Anschauen - sie soll zum Nachdenken und zur Diskussion anregen. Über Kunst, Kultur und die Gesellschaft, in der wir lebten und künftig leben wollen. »Die jungen Jahre der Alten Meister. Baselitz - Richter - Polke - Kiefer« - bis zum 11. August in unserem Museum zu sehen! • • • »Underneath the pavement is the beach« - another one of the sayings from the protests of the 60ies, which are part of our marketing concept accompanying our special exhibition »The Early Years of the Old Masters. Baselitz - Richter - Polke - Kiefer.« This one traces back to the year 1968. The meaning reflects the spirit of this time: ripping out the paving stones, fighting with them against prevailing structures, finding sand underneath - the beach, the freedom. This special exhibition is not only exciting to look at - it should provoke thoughts and discussion on art, culture and the society we lived in and want to live in in the future. »The Early Years of the Old Masters. Baselitz - Richter - Polke - Kiefer« - in our museum until the 11th of August. #staatsgaleriestuttgart #staatsgalerie #stuttgart #0711 #museum #meinmuseum #art #kunst #kunstmuseum #DieJungenJahreDerAltenMeister #künstlerquartett #60erjahre #oldmasters #germanmasters #exhibition #georgbaselitz #baselitz #gerhardrichter #richter #sigmarpolke #polke #anselmkiefer #kiefer #60ies #earlyworks #spontisprüche #studentenprotest #diewilden60er

Have you already figured out in which neighborhood Banksy’s controversial artwork »Love is in the Bin« is currently located? As you may know, our museum follows a slightly unconventional concept with Banksy. Our goal is to let his work enter into dialogue with long-established artists and artworks of many different epochs. We aim to find out if Banksy‘s art can keep up with Old Masters and revolutionaries of the art history and what happens when street art is put into a frame and appears in a museum. Is Banksy’s work even comparable to artworks in our collection? Can we even talk about street art in this case? You are highly invited to share your opinion and discuss these questions with us tomorrow at our Speaker‘s Corner at 3.30 pm in front of the artwork! Make sure to visit »Love is in the Bin« within the next two weeks, before it moves to another part of our collection and gets a new neighbor, who revolutionized the art history in a very unique way. #visitbanksy #staatsgaleriestuttgart #meinmuseum #staatsgalerie #museum #artmuseum #kunstmuseum #art #kunst #arthistory #kunstgeschichte #stuttgart #0711 #banksy #loveisinthebin #artmarket #streetart #artwork #isthisart

A story told by pictures. Hans Holbein confronts us with the ordeal of Jesus Christ in his painting series »The Grey Passion« (around 1460). Suffering and humiliation are shown usparlingly. Nevertheless, Holbein tells the story to the end, letting Jesus rise again from the dead, leaving all his pain behind. The narrative of these six detailed paintings is a story of deep love, faith and hope, which sums up the spirit of Easter perfectly. Come around and discover all the paintings in our collection that tell the stories about Christ’s passion. Due to Easter holiday, our museum will be closed tomorrow, but opens again on Saturday at the usual times. We wish you a very calm and joyful holiday in advance, spend it with your loved ones! And maybe visit our collection this weekend to get inspired by Holbein‘s paintings? Happy Easter everyone! #staatsgaleriestuttgart #staatsgalerie #museum #artmuseum #kunstmuseum #art #kunst #arthistory #hansholbein #jesus #jesuschrist #passion #collection #stuttgart #0711 #easter #happyeaster #grauepassion #holbein #ostern
